Attack Jade (攻玉) - Chapter 121

[Chapter 88 He Needs To Be Quiet]

Lin Chengyou looked at the purple jade saddle. From the selection of materials to the carving, this thing is ingenious everywhere. I don’t know how much time Teng Yuyi has prepared in advance and how much effort he has spent to prepare this eye-catching treasure and deliver it on his birthday. , This heart is even more precious than this dazzling purple jade saddle itself.

How much he likes it.

He liked it so much that he didn’t know what to say.

He moved his pace, walked to Duanfu, and then raised his hand to touch the saddle.

As soon as I touched the warm leather and gems, it was as if I had touched my heart, and my heart softened, so soft that it was about to melt.

How could there be such a cute little lady in the world, he could imagine how long it took her to think of using this thing as a saddle.

His heart was hot and hot, and for the first time in his life, he felt so happy that he was dazed.

He smiled and nodded: “Teng Yuyi, I really have you, I don’t even know what to say, this is the best gift I’ve ever received.”

“Really?” Teng Yuyi was also happy, seeing that Lin Chengyou was real Like, gift giving is the most important thing. If she can give a birthday gift that satisfies the benefactor, then her efforts are not in vain.

Lin Chengyou looked back at her with a smile, his eyes shining like a morning star: “Really.”

But he said in his heart, knowing her was the best gift he received this year compared to this pair of saddles. His heart was warm, and he didn’t know what to say for a while, but Teng Yuyi stood pretty beside the lotus pond. The red lotus in the pond was standing still, and the moonlight by the pond was like frost. The setting is like the person in the picture. When he came here, he still felt that the garden was not pleasing to the eye, and now the surrounding scenery is all endearing.

Compared with the treasure saddle in front of him, the Bu Yao in his arms was extremely crude, but since the intention was already prepared, he didn’t want to hide it, just rushing to Bu Yao’s meaning of Qiongyu, she also I won’t look down on it. When it comes to her hands, she can use it as a gadget, wear it, or put it away, as she pleases.

After tonight, he will give her a unique treasure that is even more unique than Ziyu Saddle.

Thinking like this, he put his hand into the front again, but at this time, Teng Yuyi suddenly crossed his hands and gave him a bow, and said as he bowed, “I was worried that the prince would not like it, but now I can rest assured. You have saved me three times. This kind of kindness cannot be overstated, just like a saddle, I can only express my gratitude.”

Lin Chengyou’s movements were stagnant, big benefactor? Liver and brain smeared?

“What do you want to tell the future generations? Duanfu and I are willing to do the hard work of dogs and horses. Another day I will send someone to send the flower cake to Guanli. It happens that the two priests have never eaten it, so I will give them a taste by the way. ”

Wait, the more I listen, the more wrong it becomes, the flower cake belongs to him alone, why should he even have a share in Jue Sheng and Ji Zhi.

After Teng Yuyi said those words, she was worried in her heart. In front of Juesheng and Qizhi, she wanted to inquire about borrowing life, but when she came to Lin Chengyou, she might not be able to, because the question would make him suspicious. Fortunately, the gift was finally given out. She had achieved her goal tonight.

She turned her head and looked around: “In order to give gifts to the prince, I ran out of the East Garden specially, and I have been away from the dinner for a long time. If I don’t go back, my sister and aunt should be worried. This gift is sent to the birthday star. , I’m relieved, Shizi, if there is nothing else, we will leave first.”

Teng Yuyi smiled and motioned to Duanfu to present the Ziyu saddle to Lin Chengyou, and then bowed to Lin Chengyou, and was about to leave.

“Wait.” Lin Chengyou blurted out.

Teng Yuyi was stunned for a moment: “Is there anything else to do with your son?”

As soon as Lin Chengyou said that, he began to look at her carefully without any shyness on his face. There is no point in saying a few words of greeting.

He was a little lost in his heart. Although he had always sneered at the idea of a talented person and a beautiful woman, he had also heard a few twists and turns describing romance. According to common sense, after the little lady gives gifts to her sweetheart, she should not behave like this.

This is not right, Teng Yuyi doesn’t look like he admires him at all.

Teng Yuyi was surprised: “Prince?”

“Don’t worry, no one will come here for the time being. I have something to ask you.” Lin Chengyou tried to stabilize his mind. Maybe Teng Yuyi was in a hurry to leave because he was afraid of being bumped into, or he just pretended to be calm. It’s just that he can’t save face, such as how fast his heartbeat is now, only he knows.

“Sir, let’s talk.”

Lin Chengyou didn’t know how to speak. He couldn’t ask directly, “Teng Yuyi, do you like me?”

It seemed that he could only directly take out the Bu Yao in his arms.

She is a little lady, she has her concerns, it doesn’t matter, then it’s up to him. He is Lang Jun, and he is thick-skinned.

He just told her he liked her directly.

She knew that he liked her, so she would naturally put down her worries.

He made up his mind in an instant, and his heart beat a little faster before he opened his mouth. A sudden cough came from the other end, which interrupted Lin Chengyou’s words.

This man’s voice was a little old, and he was inexplicably familiar, Teng Yuyi groaned in his heart, didn’t Lin Chengyou say that there was no one coming over here for the time being, and turned around in surprise, only to find that the person who came was Daoist Qingxuzi.

No wonder even Lin Chengyou’s squires dared not stop him.

Master Qingxuzi was followed by Juesheng and Jizhi.

The Taoist priest Qingxuzi walked slowly in front of him with his hands behind his back, and Juesheng and Qizhi followed behind him.

Teng Yuyi turned to look at Lin Chengyou, and sure enough, even Lin Chengyou was stunned.

Fortunately, Lin Chengyou responded very quickly, and turned around to meet him: “Master.”

Teng Yuyi took the opportunity to leave, but then she thought that she was here to give a birthday ceremony. Juesheng and Qizhi also knew about this, and the Taoist priest Qingxuzi was in the midst of sages and adults. The Wang couple had an extraordinary position in their hearts. If she left without saying hello, it would be both rude and guilty. After a little pondering, she calmly followed.

“I have seen the Taoist priest.” She bowed respectfully and saluted.

Upon closer inspection, I found that Daochang Qingxuzi had many wrinkles on his face, but his eyes were as bright as those of young people. Although there was not much smile on his face, his eyes were still gentle.

Qing Xuzi snorted: “Pindao Jishou.”

Teng Yuyi got up, and asked Duanfu to present the purple jade saddle to Juesheng and Qizhi, and then said frankly: “The great kindness of the prince, Duan and I, Fu Ming keeps it in mind, in the future, if there is something that will be of use to us, just do what you tell me.”

After saying this, he smiled and bowed again, and then he left.

Lin Chengyou’s heart has long been in a mess, looking at Teng Yuyi’s back hurriedly leaving, he feels that there are 10,000 words stuck in his throat, but in front of his master, he can only hold on.

“Master, isn’t your old man asleep? Why did you come here suddenly?”

Daoist Qing Xuzi snorted when he heard the words: “I came out and walked around, but I didn’t expect to bump into you and be stupid.”

Teng

Yuyi only left. Not too far, Biluo suddenly said: “Madam, why does the maid think that the prince likes you.”

Teng Yuyi was stunned for a moment, then touched his ears again, he heard correctly, Biluo just said that, even if Hearing that Master Jing Chen was alive again, it wouldn’t make her feel more absurd than this.

“Is this maid crazy? What nonsense are you talking about?” She looked at Biluo in disbelief.

Biluo’s face was full of confusion: “But just now, the maid looked at her so earnestly. Prince Cheng didn’t look right at her, and she kept smiling at her.”

Teng Yuyi scoffed, and Lin Chengyou smiled casually, even in the evil spirits. She can speak and laugh freely in front of her. Since dealing with this person, she has never seen him look worried.

“Stop talking nonsense, he looks at everyone like this.”

“But—”

Teng Yuyi recalled the situation just now. Speaking of which, Lin Chengyou was a bit strange tonight, he talked more, and his smile was more pleasing to the eye than usual, but don’t forget, he didn’t smile until he saw the purple jade saddle. He made trouble for her when he showed up, because he thought the wine she gave was not good enough, and he made strange requests.

It is easy to draw the conclusion that he was not in a good mood at first, and only smiled when he saw Ziyu An.

She waved her hand to interrupt Biluo, and took out the sachet from her sleeve: “Use your brain, there is a heartless Gu, this Gu is difficult to understand, even the sage and the Taoist priest Qingxu are worried about this all day long, before they can solve the Gu , Lin Chengyou will never fall in love with any woman.”

Biluo had to express her opinion, Teng Yuyi’s attention had already shifted to her silk sash, she walked to the bright light and took a closer look, only to find that the silver thread on the right The silk thread that made the sachet broke for no reason. Judging from the fluffy thread, it seemed to have been worn away by something beforehand. The sachet was a silver ball, which was originally heavy, and she was placed inside. The commonly used rose incense block, the silk thread is worn, no wonder the sachet will fall off when walking.

So it wasn’t that the knot of the silk sash was loosened just now, but someone moved her silk sash beforehand.

This is simply unbelievable. When she left the house tonight, Chunrong and Biluo checked her crony again and again to make sure that there was no problem before putting it on her. Because she has always been extra cautious when she went out, she also checked it in advance.

She was sure that at least before going out, there was no problem with the silk sash and the sachet.

Teng Yuyi’s first reaction was to see Biluo. Duanfu was right next to her on the way to the West Garden, and Biluo was walking behind her. If Biluo dared to cut her silk sash under Duanfu’s eyelids, Duanfu would Impossible not to notice.

So it won’t be Biluo.

Could it be the King of Chun’an County? It’s the same reason. When he does tricks on his side, he can’t hide the reasoning from Duanfu’s eyes. Besides, if the Prince of Chun’an wanted to use her to drop the sachet, he should not return the sachet to her. But not only did he take the initiative to remind her that the sachet was lost, but he left without saying a word to her.

Judging from the situation at the time, it seemed that the Prince of Chun’an was invited there by someone.

Looking at it this way, could it be that it was not the people present who did the trick, but someone who plotted against Duanfu when she was not by her side?

Thinking back carefully, Duanfu was only around when she was at the women’s feast tonight.

After entering the table, my sister sat on her right all the time, so the only person to do it could be the one on her left. It happened that the broken silk sash was tied to the left.

In her mind, there was someone on her left. Li Huaigu is the closest to her, Wu Qi is next, and Liu Siniang is further in.

Could it be one of the three? She was silent, harming people always has a purpose. She couldn’t figure out which of them she had a grudge against, but it was a fact that her silk sash had been worn away.

Calculating against her and the Prince of Chun’an? To tarnish her reputation? Or is there something else planned…

***

East across the courtyard, go to the room.

The room was warm, and Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi were busy.

Lin Chengyou offered the teacher a cup of tea with his own hands, and then took the crown hat and the robe that the teacher took off and hung them on the red sandalwood hanger.

Daoist Qingxuzi was not in a hurry to go to bed, he just sat on the bedside and sipped tea slowly in a bedclothes, and when the house was almost ready, he said to Juesheng and Qizhi in a warm voice, “You two should go out first. , Master has something to tell your senior brothers.”

Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi secretly winked at senior brothers and pushed them out.

“That Ziyu Saddle is your birthday present from the little lady of the Teng family?”

Lin Chengyou sat down on the couch beside the bed with her robe up. Although her heart was no longer at ease, she couldn’t help but smile when she thought of Ziyu Saddle. meaning.

“Yes.” Lin Chengyou was afraid that her master would misunderstand Teng Yuyi, and added solemnly, “Miss Teng is a kind person who repays her kindness. The reason for giving such a generous gift is because I have rescued her a few times before.”

Daoist Qing Xuzi stared at his disciple Sun for a long time, and suddenly sighed: “You kid started to inquire about Heartless Gu a few days ago, because you feel that you are tempted by this lady Teng?”

Lin Chengyou’s face was calm, but his ears were hot. , I snorted at the eyes of Master Dongruo watching the fire, and knew that nothing could be hidden from Master.

“Yes.” He simply admitted, “My disciple likes Mrs. Teng. She is… affectionate and righteous, Master, if you have a chance, your disciple will take her to talk to you, and you will definitely like her too.”

Qing Xuzi said The proboscis snorted, this child is thicker than his grandfather back then, but if you ask, even the next meeting has been arranged according to the situation.

He didn’t answer the question, instead he pointed at Lin Chengyou’s chest: “There are some good things hidden in your arms, when Mrs. Teng was still there just now, the master saw that you took it to her several times, did you have something for her? ?”

Lin Chengyou looked down, cleared his throat and said, “Oh, my grandson has prepared a gift for Mrs. Teng.”

Thinking it was either expensive jewelry or something fun, Qing Xuzi said with a sullen face, “If the master doesn’t come to interrupt, you Are you going to send things out, kid?”

Lin Chengyou smiled and didn’t answer.

Qing Xuzi: “Silly boy, don’t you first find out whether people like you or not. If they don’t like you, and you give something like this to others, do you think they will accept it or not?”

Lin Chengyou smiled slightly, and changed Before Zuo, even if he didn’t say it, he would answer in his heart, “Of course she likes me, but we are in love with each other.”

But after the previous encounter, he was suddenly a little uncertain.

” I—” As soon as the words came out, he was slammed

by the master: “According to the master, that little lady doesn’t like you at all.”

Lin Chengyou’s heart jumped, and he forced a smile: “Master, you just met. Madam Teng has two sides, how can she know what she is thinking.”

Qing Xuzi pointed to his eyes: “Master will see.”

It seemed that Lin Chengyou would argue with him, and he added slowly: “Women like a man, their eyes can’t be hidden, before they get married, as long as they see themselves The gentleman in his heart is either shy and lowered his eyebrows or can’t move his eyes, but just now when the master looked at you for a while, that lady Teng looked at you with the same eyes as your two junior brothers.”

Lin Chengyou froze . : “Impossible!”

“Silly boy.” Qing Xuzi shook his head vigorously, “Just think about yourself, are you happy when you see Mrs. Teng?”

That’s right.

“Think about Madam Teng again, did she look like she saw her sweetheart just now?”

Lin Chengyou’s heart began to shake, she was a little too calm and calm in front of him, but her mouth was still hard: “If a person If you are too embarrassed, maybe you will hide it in front of others.”

Qing Xuzi stroked his beard and said coldly, “Remember that Master taught you when you were young that to judge what a person is thinking, you can’t just look at the surface, but If you want to listen to the breath, no matter how you hide it on a person’s face, the breath will betray you, and even in front of your sweetheart, even the heartbeat is different from usual, you just noticed her breath, is it the same as usual?”

Lin Chengyou couldn’t laugh anymore . Now, he didn’t pay attention to the ups and downs of his mood before, but when he talked about his pulse and breathing, he remembered the night when Li Baixuan taught her Qinggong. gas.

Through the transmission of the soul lock, he could clearly detect her breathing and pulse, but even if he poured her infuriating energy face to face, her breathing and heartbeat had never been disturbed once.

And that time in the underground palace, when he held her in his arms, he suddenly felt as hot as he had just played polo in the summer. Teng Yuyi was different. After she confirmed that it was him who came to save her, Heartbeat and breathing quickly stabilized.

He was not sure of his intentions before, so he never thought about it. Now that he thinks about it, if Teng Yuyi is interested in him, his palms are on her face, how can he not even disturb his breath.

***

Kuannu, Juesheng and Qizhi, the three of them sat side by side on the steps in the courtyard, quietly listening to the sound of the flute from the opposite eaves.

“It’s almost midnight, and the front seats are all scattered. Senior brother won’t plan to blow it until dawn.” Jue Sheng was the first to speak.

“Master said that Senior Brother is unhappy at the moment, and told us not to disturb Senior Brother and let him be alone.” Qizhi held his cheeks.

Kuannu sighed: “Speaking of which, it’s been a long time since I heard the prince play the flute. How cheerful the tune was in the past, listen to it tonight…” Qizhi scratched his

head: “It’s a bit desolate.”

Jue Sheng added: “It’s still playing next to it . Wearing that purple jade saddle.”

“Poor.” The three of them sighed in unison.
